IBM In Talks To Sell x86 Server Business To Lenovo

Posted by timothy on Friday April 19, 2013 @10:52AM from the biggish-blue dept.

FrankPoole writes "According to CRN, IBM is in serious negotiations to sell its low-end x86 server business to Lenovo, which is looking to grow its server revenue. If the deal goes though, it will be the second time in eight years that Big Blue has exited a major hardware business and sold the operation to Lenovo. IBM sold its PC business to Chinese computer maker in 2005."

Racist much? IBM is not somehow a triumph of Western civilisation, whatever that is. IBM is a triumph of 20th century America, a melting-pot of people from all over the world.
